    • Question by: Joanne McCartney

    It is now the first anniversary of a directly elected police commissioner for London. What difference have Londoners noticed, and how have and will these new powers be exercised over policing in London?

  • Race and Faith Inquiry

    • Reference: 2012/0017-2
    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Joanne McCartney (Chair): Can we then move to our substantive item this morning, which is the question and answer session with the Mayor and Commissioner for the Metropolitan Police Service, and can I welcome you both here this morning. Obviously since we last met one of the major issues that has arisen has been allegations of racism within the Metropolitan Police Service, and perhaps I can start with you, Mr Mayor. Today you issued a press release saying that you were launching a review of measures introduced to eradicate racism within the Metropolitan Police Service. Four years ago you launched...

  • Safer Neighbourhood Teams

    • Reference: 2012/0019-2
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Navin Shah (AM): Mr Mayor, do you agree that, in all boroughs, the Safer Neighbourhood Teams are seriously depleted, and therefore the question I have for you is, what plans do you have to restore those Safer Neighbourhood Teams to their full capacity?

  • Violence Against Women and Girls

    • Reference: 2012/0022-2
    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Jennette Arnold (AM): Chair, we did, with your support, want to just raise the issue about violence against women and girls, especially the domestic violence promise which we welcome from the Mayor. The Mayor said in his 2012 manifesto, 'I will work with the Police, Boroughs, National Health Service, Home Office and the Crown Prosecution Service to commission and fund a pan-London domestic violence service and maintain the number of Independent Domestic Violence Advocates (IDVA).' Those are Independent Domestic Violence Advocates. Now, I have two pages of questions so clearly I will not be able to address those, Chair. If...

  • Race and Faith Inquiry (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Jennette Arnold (AM): Can I just ask the Commissioner to clarify what he just said: 7,000 leaders, did you say you had identified?

  • Race and Faith Inquiry (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Joanne McCartney (Chair): Can I just pick up a couple of things from the discussion we have had. We have talked about these various reviews that are going on into different aspects of racism. Who is actually co-ordinating this, Commissioner, at a strategic level for the Metropolitan Police Service?

  • Officer Numbers (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Tom Copley (AM): Thank you, Chair. Mr Mayor, I just wanted to clarify something, following on from Jenny's points. Are you or are you not saying there will be 1,000 more police officers in 2016 than there are now?

  • Safer Neighbourhood Teams (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Len Duvall (AM): A number of boroughs have lost a number of staff, both civilian and police officers; you are talking about allocating the numbers that we have now from the recent Government grant, that is probably less than what they have lost through different ways. The figures I have seen, the figures provided by the Metropolitan Police Service, sorry, but you are talking about reallocating the smaller number of resources in terms of that, is this a new rough formula, the new policing model? What are we talking about? Are these the numbers that each borough is going to...

  • Neighbourhood Policing Changes (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 31 May 2012
    Navin Shah (AM): I generally share some of the comments made about potential for either swallowing up or stampeding on the existing framework that might exist in the local areas or, possibility of the idea for both is not a bad one, but we will have to see what you actually come up with. The question to the Commissioner is, what timetable do you have for coming up with the whole framework for the board and, would there be any opportunity for any variation to adopt locally the right approach for the board itself for better accountability, better engagement?
